Gayton is wanted for homicide, and a warrant for his arrest has been issued, police confirmed.

In addition to being a person of interest in the stabbing death of Zumbrum, Tapia, of Woodland, is wanted for being a parolee at large. He is also wanted for a New Mexico state arrest warrant.

Prior to his death Zumbrum was also on parole, Hancock confirmed. He and Tapia allegedly had the same parole agent.

According to what appears to be Zumbrum's Facebook page, he lived in Woodland and worked at Clark Pacific, the precast concrete manufacturer. He listed his "professional skills" as being a welder, and said he was from Eugene, Ore.

It also appears Zumbrum had a school-aged daughter, from photos and comments on his page.

Police found Zumbrum with a stab wound lying on the pavement on the west side of Elm just west of Dingle Elementary School in front of a private residence. Officers responded to the 600 block of Elm Street after a report of an altercation and stabbing around 10:40 p.m., Tuesday night.

Zumbrum was pronounced dead on scene.

Gayton and Tapia are both Latino, standing 5-feet, 10-inches in height.

Gayton is described as weighing 160 pounds, with short black hair and brown eyes. He has an upside down spade tattoo near his right eye and "Angelo" tattooed on his left arm.

Possible vehicles he is known to drive are a silver Mercedes, newer model sedan, previously believed to be a SUV, or a small white SUV, unknown make and model.

The vehicle has gun-metal gray wheels, according to police.

Tapia is described as weighing 170 pounds with a star tattoo on his left forehead and above left eye, and "RIP Billy" tattooed on his forearm.

"Both of these people should be considered 'armed and dangerous' and should not be approached," Hancock said in a statement. "If sighted please call the Woodland Police Department at 661-7800 or 666-2411."

Police aren't commenting on whether or not the crime is gang related while the investigation is under way.
